What is it with


cats and boxes? It was quite warm yesterday, mid 30sC, so instead on being on the porch where there was a nice breeze, Leia spent the afternoon snoozing in this box!

Could you send some of those degrees over this side of the pond DM the weather is terrible here at the moment for this time of year. We could do with some sun

I'd love to if I could, Sarah, you lot have had too much rain! It was 34C before lunch but a thunderstorm passed to the northwest of us and it's cooled down to 24C now. But we only got a little rain, and need some...send me some of yours!!

Safe, yes! Definitely, no one can sneak up behind her! But warm...it was 36C yesterday afternoon!!! She didn't need all that body heat inside the box...don't you just love the weird things they do...?
